For you 5-axis guys...

I'm getting errors when trying to use IA-NANO with TCP on.

I know I have this option installed, but no matter how and where I place this command (G5.1 Q3 X0Y0Z0A0C0 M251...) I get errors of PS0343-illegal command in nano smoothing or PS5421-illegal command in G43.4/G43.5

 

.

.

 

G98 G81 Z4.4 R4.5 F300.

G80

(AI-NANO G5.1 Q3 X.0 Y.0 Z.0 M251)

X-4.805 Y.91

Any ideas?

 

 

TIA!

This is from a sample program to test the post output for different look-ahead options.

I tried many variations of NANO II before and after TCP/with and without cutter comp/added G1/no arcs and so on...

I talked to my Fanuc guys today and they highly recommended you add the the high speed tcp option as it does away with the need for all the fussy codes and works much better. It combines all the other high speed functions into one.

 

G43.4 L1 P3 X0. Y3.4641 A-35.264 C315. H1 Z4.59949

 

He did say that if you added your rotary axises to the G5.1 Q3 line, he thought it would work just not as good as the above.

 

G43.4 H1 Z6.

G5.1 Q3 X0. Y0. Z0. A0. C0. M251

 

If that does not work try omitting the M251.

 

I will be a customers tomorrow that still uses it tomorrow setting up some robots. Let me know if that does not work. I will run some things through thier machine.

 

:cheers:

Jeremy, thanks for taking the time to do this <cheers>

 

"G43.4 H1 Z6.

G5.1 Q3 X0. Y0. Z0. A0. C0. M251

 

If that does not work try omitting the M251."

 

I did try it before, but confirmed again and it doesn't work.

 

 

 

 

"G43.4 L1 P3 X0. Y3.4641 A-35.264 C315. H1 Z4.59949"--------no luck here also (PS0523-ill. command in high-speed s-tcp)

 

Interestingly, we run some other program that had "G5.1 Q1" in it and it alarmed out when in "G68.2X.0Y.0Z.0I180.J90.K0.". This look ahead worked properly in regular XY plane... :help:

 

 

Thanks again!

Seems like this should work, but try

 

G43.4 H1 Z6. >>>>>>>>> TCP ON

(G5.1 Q3 R1) >>>>>>>>> AI CONTOUR / MACHINE CONDITION SELECTION FUNCTION IN PARENTHESES

G5.1 Q3 X0. Y0. Z0. A0. C0. >>>>>>>>> NANO SMOTING 2 ON

M251

YA'DA'

YA'DA'

YA'DA'

G5.1 Q0 >>>>>>>>>> NANO SMOTING OFF

G49 >>>>>>>>>> TOOL LENGTH COMP CANCEL

 

 

ONE THING THAT CAUGHT MY EYE IN THE FANUC MANUAL IS THIS..

 

"G43.44"?

NOT SURE IF THAT'S RIGHT.

1. Tried that too...

2. "G43.44" I think is a typo ;)

:cheers:

 

Yup, I've found more than one typo in those Fanuc manuals, so I'm always catious about using the exact method they provide.

 

Only other thing I'd recomend s going over you TCP and AI NANO perameter settings in your control, make sure you're not running any custom macros, dynamic fixture offset, or anything else that would conflict with the NANO function.
